The Philadelphia Phillies have had a rough 2026 season so far, with a record of 8-13 and fourth place in the NL East. They tried to run back basically the same roster from last season, and so far, it hasn’t worked at all.

With that in mind, they could be major sellers at the deadline, to try and rearm this offseason for 2027. FanSided’s Christopher Kline predicts one of the top names the Phillies could shop is the outfielder they acquired this offseason, All-Star and World Series champ Adolis Garcia.

“Adolis García, who inked a one-year contract in free agency, probably comes up in trade talks as well. Phillies fans have mostly celebrated García, who has improved his plate approach and provided a substantial defensive upgrade over Nick Castellanos in right field. That said, the Phillies could dump García to a contender in need of outfield depth and test out the farm system — perhaps a Gabriel Rincones call-up? — or just give newcomer Felix Reyes a more permanent, full-time role over the second half of the campaign,” Kline wrote.
